Both your subject line and your message give no idea about your specific
issue, so guidance would be near impossible...maybe post with more detail or
all I can offer is....plug it in?

I'd start here:
http://groups.google.com/advanced_group_search

But I'd try to give it a specific newsgroup to search.

If you're having trouble with Windows XP, then I'd put:

*WindowsXP*
in the "Return only messages from the group at this location" box

If you're having trouble with hardware, maybe you can put your manufacturer's
name in that box--like:

*Dell*

The asterisks are wild cards and will look for any newsgroup that has the word
Dell (for example) in its name.

If it's software related, you could use:
*Powerpoint*

30 or 40 years ago, "computer issues" might have been a small enough topic
to do that.

Nowadays it's much too complex. You need a general area, sub-area, topic,
subtopic, sub-subtopic, etc.

It's not your computer, it's your keyboard: Get a new one or have the "!"
key fixed.
